Chapter Ninety-Six: A Completely Different Feeling
Duan Qing wore a set of moon-white underwear, barefoot, walked out of the restaurant, looked at both ends of the street, there was no one left and right, many shops had closed for rest, the lanterns were extinguished, and on the dark streets, only stray dogs occasionally trotted past with panicked expressions.
Duan Qing didn't feel anything about Xiao Er's troubles, he had to give what he owed to others, and he didn't want to stand at the door of the restaurant annoyingly, so he went to the opposite side and squatted under the closed cloth door, waiting for Gao Jian.
When the sky was about to dawn, the stray dog returned, passing by Duan Qingshi, tilted his head to look, licked his nose that was still stained with oil flowers, walked upside down, raised his head and sniffed on him, suddenly a spirit, sneezed three times in a row, whimpered in his mouth, the originally arrogant tail was immediately clamped, and he ran away in a panic.
The toilet collector squeaked past with a two-wheeled vehicle.
Those who came into the city to sell their produce had already set up stalls.
A stout beggar walked over with a stick in his hand, swayed from side to side, and then retreated, smiling with big yellow teeth, and walked away with the two ladies in his arms.
It was getting dark.
The people in the restaurant went in and out, and the cloth shop also opened the door, and the young man was about to open his mouth, but found that the squatting person was actually gone, he snorted and continued to open the gate.
Hongtu Auction House, every day is the city of the old man and rich boy brother such as the upper class people in and out of the place, I don't know when there is a boy who doesn't even have a coat, some of the old men turn a blind eye, the young boy buddies feel very awkward, originally wanted to enter the auction house all said to change places, otherwise they all feel embarrassed, unlucky, the auction house guy was so angry that he almost exploded, ran out and said: "Hey! Is this where you stand? Get away!"
"I'm looking for Gao Jian. Duan Qing said in a calm tone.
"Go up there and stand!" The young man frowned and said, Gao Jian had already walked over in the distance, but he didn't remind Duan Qing at all, he turned around and said to his companion, and this kid immediately went to remind Gao Jian.
Gao Jian was alone, his face was red, and there was a smell of fat powder on his body, the young man came to remind, he nodded, took out a small pack of tobacco leaves and handed it over, and then walked towards Duan Qing, and looked at it very carefully when he arrived, only to recognize that this kid was actually the guy who drank together last night, and immediately slapped his forehead: "Oh, it's you, why did you become like this?"
Although he asked questions, he didn't let Duan Qing speak, and said directly: "That's the case, the master was meeting guests last night, I waited for it, and there was no chance when it was dawn, so I will definitely get things done for you tonight, don't worry, I am the most efficient in doing things." Let's do it first, don't stand here either, if the nurses see it, if they go crazy, I can't help it. ”
Gao Jian said, patted his shoulder very sincerely, and then turned around and walked into the auction house, from beginning to end, Duan Qing was not left with the slightest room to speak.
Looking at the back of Gao Jian leaving with the fragrant wind, Duan Qing's eyes did not have any waves, calm as a piece of ice, otherwise there would be fluctuations no matter what.
He got up and returned to the inn, the young man was a little stunned, and then said that today's room fee has not been paid, the proprietress is still snorting melon seeds, and she didn't look back and said: "He didn't live yesterday, but he arrived today." ”
The young man sighed, and went to boil water, Duan Qing said thank you, and went back to the room, there was nothing left, only some traces of life, wiped them one by one, and was about to leave, when the proprietress knocked on the door and walked in, put down a piece of clothing and a pair of shoes, and said: "This is what my dead man left, I haven't gotten on, if you don't dislike it, you can stay and use it." The room fee is not much, you just owe it first, and when you are developed, it is enough to give your sister-in-law more interest. With that, he turned around and went out.
Duan Qing was a little stunned, he didn't know what to react to for a while, he looked at his clothes and shoes, they were about the same size, and a trace of emotion flashed inexplicably in his heart...
It seems to be impressed.
They don't leave room for reaction, but they are two completely different feelings.
Duan Qing made up for a night's sleep, slept until it got dark, changed his clothes, got up and went out, and walked a little dazedly, but everywhere he passed, he was comparing with the impression he had left in his mind.
After one night, I came to a wharf, not a big wharf is only a few boats of more than ten meters, among which there is a building boat, painted in a brilliant color, it happens that there is a recruitment, as long as the three bags of rice to the ship will get a copper plate payment, the distance is about seventy or eighty zhang, for ordinary people, it may be a physical work, but for monks, even low-level monks are not a problem at all.
Touching his hungry stomach, Duan Qing knew that the food money had come out, so he walked over, but the workers didn't look at him at all, and picked up those who were obviously lacking in body with yellow muscles and thin muscles, and finally there were more than a dozen men left in the crowd who looked very strong, which made Duan Qing puzzled.
A man was still rubbing his head and was annoyed: "What's the matter?
Duan Qing asked, "This big brother, what's going on?" The man didn't speak, just glanced at him and left, and another person next to him said: "Little brother, is it new?" Let me tell you, this is the dock of a tall and kind person, he is a kind-hearted person, and the selection of workers will also choose those who can't even eat enough, even the sick, these people have priority, we can only wait for people to get a piece of the pie when they don't have enough manpower, but how can there be so much work every day, alas!"
After Duan Qing thanked him, he could only leave disappointed. At this time, someone brought a corpse over, and a family member took it over crying, and this man shrugged his shoulders and said: "You see, this is another death, it is the reception of tall and good people that has allowed them to live for so many more days, I heard that many people have been cured, this seems to be a terminal illness that will die." ”
The dead man Duan Qing saw a lot and didn't feel anything, so he walked for another day, his stomach gurgling, although his body would not have any problems if he was hungry for a few days after building the foundation, but the taste of hunger was really uncomfortable, after all, the employment places in the city required long-term work, and Duan Qing couldn't waste more time on this.
So, he came to the auction house again, and Gao Jian came over, with a lot of impatience on his face: "Didn't I tell you to wait for the news, why are you still here? If my master is annoyed, we don't have any good fruit to eat! Where do you live? When there is news, I will immediately send someone to inform you!"
After that, he walked away again.
Duan Qing also left, returned to the inn, and already owed fifteen copper plates, although the proprietress said that it would be worth a day, but the account book in Duan Qing's heart was not like this, so he walked around the backyard for a while, split the firewood with his hand, and filled it with water, and then went back to the room, took the Yiqi Pill and continued to cultivate.
The door of the store was closed at night, the proprietress went back to the backyard to rest, and saw that the firewood in the yard was chopped well, placed neatly, and all the water tanks were also full.
The proprietress immediately knew who had done it, glanced upstairs, smiled, and went back to her room.
